For the first winter in a very long time, I am at a complete loss as to what I would like to build. Probably because, with all the ARF's that I have put together, I no longer consider myself to be a builder. Its more like I have become only an " assembler ".

With that said ............ I have am considering BUILDING a Balsa USA, SPAD. :D

rex man I know they are hard to land but the f-18 super hornet is just freaking sexy! I have a friend that chose a the skymaster f-18 for his first jet and I cannot wait to see it fly. With respect I choose not to get one but some day it shal be mine :D
By the way Rex the F-16 is super easy to fly im looking forward tot he 1/5 scale [:-]

Going to turn a Nexstar into a tail dragger and take the dihedral out of the wing. Work on making new wing struts for my precedent 1/4 scale Champ. I'm going to post pics when I get started. Not a bad season for my first in model airplanes.

For me, Iwant to build a Glider Tow plane using a Wren MKV 54 TurboProp! (over 50 lb static thrust!)

Iwill either use the C-Arf SF260 OR a Wilga 2000. Either of these would be excellent
for that powerplant. Right now, the WILGA gets the edge since it is on the market and has a complete
build manual. Comp-arf hasn't released the 260TP yet NOR do they have a build manual published!

see>>> http://www.icare-rc.com/wilga-2000.htm
and http://www.carf-models.com/public_ca...amp;proId=2779

Dago Red..........that's just wrong in every way.........lol

Correct she is Race 7 Strega....Why would I want to go and build one of those slow planes?

I've been a Strega fan as long as I've been alive.......

I've helped work on the real Strega.....I'm pretty excited for this one......

Scale Keleo exhaust and an Evolution 40GX...the biggest motor I could get in there...Century Jet retracts, Smart Fly, Going all out....
